@Nkwkfld:

They look great like that

@Oaktavia:

Well thanks man!

Agreed. You are an artist/art teacher after all. Wear the f out of them now…. You’ll love them down the line.

[Oaktavia]

This is quite true…thanks for the encouragement. I do intend to wear the f outta them...already seeing some grey areas on the back pockets, crotch, inside waist band and even some whiskers are turning charcoal grey.

I suppose charcoal grey is the equivalent of electric blues with indigo denim...? Unless there is a different term y'all use that I'm unfamiliar with.

@Oaktavia:

I suppose it is. We could work out something more pretentious though, I'm sure 

[Jett129]

How about Smokey Blacks?

[Joberwocky]

My vote's for "radiant alabaster"

[neph93]

Chalky snail trails… ? 

[Joberwocky]

I don't know if anyone's goal should be "sick chalky snail trails"

@neph93:

Chalky snail trails… ? 

That sounds like what my daughter left on my black T shirt yesterday when she figured out she could motorboat her snot onto her dad/hankerchief

[Joberwocky]

@mclaincausey:

dad/hankerchief

"Dadkerchief"

[Oaktavia]

@mclaincausey that is hilarious

@Jett129 I like Smoky Blacks but @neph93 really is hitting home with that one…this thread got me giggling

[Nskelton]

@Oaktavia @neph93  Chalky wrinkles?

[steelworker]

@Joberwocky:

My vote's for "radiant alabaster"

I like it-needs more pretension though :-\

What about" even layer of buff colored vomit?"

[Oaktavia]

Here are some of those smoky-black-radiant-alabaster-chalky-snailtrail-chalky-wrinkles–even-layer-of-buff-colored-vomit fades...Pardon the dog hair I tried getting it off but some are glued to me I swear.

@Nskelton:

@Oaktavia @neph93  Chalky wrinkles?

Definitely some chalky wrinkles going on there. A smattering of ethereal staining too.

[Jett129]

And some Sleepy Wizard Combs!

[Joberwocky]

@Oaktavia those jeans are looking awesome.  While I was in art school I had a pair of jeans I always wore when painting that had a bunch of colored swipes on them.  They were my absolute favorite jeans until they literally fell apart.  Keep up the good work!

Also, dog hairs must be part glue…can never get rid of all of them

[neph93]

@Jett129:

Sleepy Wizard Combs!

Perfect

[Oaktavia]

@Joberwocky hah sounds like a few pairs of pants I had while I was also in art school. It is kind of bringing be back. And yes I suppose I must accept my dog hair everywhere fate from now on.

@Jett129 haha love it

[Oaktavia]

Starting to see some more fading on the top thighs. Perhaps these are quick to shed?

[Oaktavia]

@LewisStonehouse here is a photo dump of my pair, as requested. Just over a month of wear, 4-5 days a week. Some of the coloration is dust, which is more brown whereas the fades are charcoal and chalky.
